…..Im sure you've all heard of the legend of the goddess,Hylia and the golden goddesses. Let's refresh your memory, shall we? *ahem*…..Before spirits and life existed, the three golden goddesses, Din, Nayru, and Farore descended upon the chaos that was the world at the time. After forming Hyrule, the three Golden Goddesses once again departed for the heavens, and a symbol of their power, the Triforce, was created at the point where they left the world. This ultimate power gave anyone who possessed it the ability to shape reality and fulfill any desire. They also specifically designed it so that it could never be used by their own kind, as a way of giving up hope to the mortal beings of the world. Before departing, the Golden Goddesses left this symbol in the hands of a goddess named Hylia, ordering her to safeguard the relic and granting her the authority to preside over the realm.
For an age, Hylia ruled over the then-unnamed land that was then only known as "the surface", presiding over the various races in the world at that time. This era of peace ended, however, when a fissure opened in the earth, connecting the underground to the surface. From this fissure poured an army of demons led by their ruler, the Demon King known as Demise. Still with me? Alright, moving on. Demise sought to obtain the ultimate power that Hylia guarded and use it to rule over the entire world. To this end, he ordered his armies to destroy all in their path in an attempt to take the Triforce from Hylia for his own. The armies of Demise caused many misfortunes as they burned forests and killed all in their path at the behest of their master. And if you're a Zelda fan, you know what happens next, right? Hylia creates skyloft, Hylia fights Demise, Demise gets sealed, Skyward Sword happens. But, this story is about what happens BEFORE all of this. We all know Hylia, Demise, the Golden Goddesses, and even the races of Hyrule, but this story will introduce multiple new heroes and villains. These heroes are the students of Hylia and Demise, and they have some rather familiar names to us Zelda fans. Why don't we get into this story sometime soon, huh? I await your arrival in the story, The Legend of Zelda: Hylian Origin. See you there.
